Robert John Hadfield's latest video takes listeners on a nostalgic journey through Van Halen's groundbreaking third album, Women And Children First.

Released in 1980, this record helped define the transition from the 1970s to the hard rock explosion of the 1980s.

Using a vintage issue of Circus Magazine from late 1980, Robert delves into the idea that Van Halen may have truly been 'the first' 80s band.

He shares personal memories of discovering the album as a kid and explores David Lee Roth's showmanship, Eddie Van Halen's innovative keyboard work on the Wurlitzer electric piano, and the band's strategy for creating legendary concert atmospheres.

The episode concludes with an entertaining unboxing segment featuring classic Cheap Trick records, including Dream Police and Next Position Please.
